[The foot of the flute is the lowest piece which, bymeans of keys (as in this case), can produce the noteB natural below the keynote D (vide description). Ebony is not a good wood for flutes. The clarionet was inventedbetween 1690 and 1700 by John Christopher Denner; itthen had but 7 holes, besides the B flat. The nameis supposed to be the diminutive of clarion. Muller’sclarionet had 13 keys to play in any key, dispensing withthe use of 3 as commonly employed. Hautboy is, literally,high (sharp) wood; the date of its invention is unknown;it appears certainly to have been before 1029.—H. E. D.]
